Far-Sighted

A draftee on his way to training camp asked another draftee,"Do you happen to have a match?"

"Sure", was the second draftee's reply. "But I'm making sure not to give you any!"

"But why?" was the startled query form the first recruit.

"Well," said the second, " we'll get to talking, and if we get to talking. We'll wind up as buddies. And if we're buddies, we'll get into the same tent and the same squad; then we'll both volunteer with special missions. Maybe we'll even get a dangerous night job; then we'll have to use flash lights. And if the flashlights should happen to go out some dark night in enemy territory, I sure don't want to be stranded with someone who doesn't even carry matches!"

FUNNY FIGURES

Figures sometimes are funny things. For Example, take the number 142857. Multiply it with any number from one to six, and you get the same figure in the same order, but beginning at a different point.After you have proved that, then multiply the original number by 7, and see what happens.

TO LEARN, BE QUIET

A wise old owl sat on a Oak,The more he saw, the less he spoke,The less he spoke, the more he heard----

Why can't we be like that wise old bird?

GOD IS AWAKE

Have courage for the great sorrows of life, and patience for small ones. And when you have accomplished your daily task, go to sleep in peace. God is awake.Victor Hugo
